A Small Tribute to Gatsby
Recently, one of my best friends read The Great Gatsby. As I walked up Manhattan on my last evening in the City, I decided to take some pictures of places and things that are either directly from the novel (the Plaza Hotel) or inspired by it. Obviously Tom Buchanan didn't have a Ferrari in 1927 but that same type of guy in 2012 might easily have one. Hope you enjoy the photos and if you haven't read the book, there's a reason it's called the great American novel – it is. Read it.
